Visual Studio 2010 Tab Key Not Working
Several days ago, my tab key stopped working when editing C++ code in Visual Studio 2010. Everything else worked fine, even Ctrl-Tab.

Thanks for the tip, Jim! This IS an annoying new feature...

Thank you for writing it in your blog Jim. Even I found this problem and I was annoyed too much due to it. I write all variables on a single column. Like:

int i;
char * str;
And I just could not do it with tabs :(
I just found another easier way to do this, without having to loose all the settings.
Go to Tools->Options->Text Editor->C/C++->Formatting
And set Automatic Indentation On Tab to False. Its under Indentation group.
Your problem is gone, without even restarting VS. You enable it (True) and its back on.
